The discovery, or perhaps rediscovery, of great grass-green Pyromorphite in the back of an adit level at Burgham mine, near Stiperstones in Shropshire, England lead to a flurry of collecting during the 1960s and 1970s, but all this had stopped even before I got interested in mineral collecting. Specimens are incredibly distinctive for UK Pyromorphite because of their white Baryte matrix. This miniature specimen shows that association very well, with coarse bladed white Baryte coated on one edge with moss-like grass-green Pyromorphite microcrystals and with black probably manganese oxides also in association. Ex Malcolm Southwood collection, no. MS 1998.055 and ex Michael P. Cooper collection, no. 65280a.
